The bill has to be binned or reviewed every six months. As it was due to expire on 17/1 it was extended for six months until 17/7. That is what the law requires.

The government wanted 2 yearly intervals but a compromise was agreed at 6 months.

What's the problem?

There was a story on R5L yesterday.
Daughter whose mother was suffering with back pain.
The doctor diagnosed a muscle strain.

Turns out she was riddled with terminal bowel cancer.

......and one in fifty (2.3%, 95 users) suffering for longer than 12 weeks

...and one in two of those had it before they even had it

Died doing what he loved, can't get better than that

Chap I knew (fantastic fella) had a huge cardiac arrest - dead before his knees bucked-type CA, as reported at the time - while skiing. He loved skiing.
His last moments were doing something he loved.

Last time there was a get fit campaign which is a while ago now doc's noticed a lot of people who died sooner than expected as a result and would have lived longer if they had kept exercise levels to ones that were suitable for them.

Green cross code was the same, people would walk up to a road, look right, look left, then step out in front of a car. Thousands killed.

NHS Chief Executive Sir Simon Stevens said: “Long COVID is already having a very serious impact on many people’s lives and could well go on to affect hundreds of thousands"

I guess he doesn't know what he's talking about.
